Essential Skills for Agile Developers – .NET Edition Scheduled for February in Tampa

byCory FoyonDecember 10, 2009

Agile. Scrum. XP. Lean. It’s hard to turn anywhere without running into the signs that something is afoot in the development community. Next thing you know, your manager is asking you to deliver working software in a week – with code coverage metrics to boot!

In this intensive, hands-on, 3-day session we cover the basics you need to know to get a better understanding of working in an agile environment. We include topics such as Planning and Estimating, Test-Driven Development, Refactoring, and working with tools such as Visual Studio Team Edition, NUnit and Resharper. This ensures that by the end of the third day you’ll have a solid footing for working in an agile environment.

The course is taught by Cory Foy, a former Microsoft Field Engineer who is active in both the Agile and .NET Communities. Cory has helped organizations of all sizes adopt agile practices, and has been an invited speaker to events such as TechReady and the North America Software Craftsmanship conference. In addition, he’s contributed to projects such as NUnit and FitNesse, and helps run the Agile Tampa user’s group when he isn’t speaking at other user groups.

Course dates are February 15th-17th in sunny Tampa, FL. Registration is $1295 and limited to 15 people. Breakfast and lunch will be provided all three days, and group and company discounts are available. To get more information, or to register, please contact info@coryfoy.com or call (813) 352-0233, or see the registration site.
